TheWizards APT group uses SLAAC spoofing to perform adversary-in-the-middle attacks
In this blogpost, ESET researchers provide an analysis of Spellbinder, a lateral movement tool for performing adversary-in-the-middle attacks, used by the China-aligned threat actor that we have named TheWizards. Spellbinder enables adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) attacks, through IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) spoofing, to move laterally in the compromised network, intercepting packets and redirecting the traffic of…

New training approach could help AI agents perform better in uncertain conditions
A home robot trained to perform household tasks in a factory may fail to effectively scrub the sink or take out the trash when deployed in a user’s kitchen, since this new environment differs from its training space. To avoid this, engineers often try to match the simulated training environment as closely as possible with…
